are corrupt persons in the church and that there
are dissensiOns and yet the fact remains that the
main influence of christianity is ennobling and
elevating in character. And what is christianity
but communing between man and God, and this can
have but one result, and that is beneficial one.
1t is related that when the armies of Mcclellan

OF a river, that one Sabbath evening the regimen
tai bands both sides commenced a musical
duel. The Union band would play Columbia"

sions of both armies were reused to such a pitch
that a conflict was imminent. There came a
pause in the music. and some band started
"Home, Sweet HOme;' one after another of the
bands on both sides of the river took up the strain
until valley and hill top resounded with the melo-
dy; all animOsites were forgotten and tears stood
in more than one soldiers eyes as his thoughts
turned to home and loved ones So it is with the
christians earthly disputes. They may argue
over obscure religious questions to almost the
limits of peacable discussion until the strains of
"All hail the power of Jesus name" fall upon the
troubled waters, all dissentions are hushed and
all join in to swell the mighty chorus, Bring

Effect OF TmprIsoMntint on the Mind.
TO the ordinary mind full of busy
schemes and plans for future good, in
the many active and fruitful years which
people are so sure remain to them. the con-
dition of one condemned to die at the hands
of the law is incOnceivable. TO the sick,
OftimeS the restraint hhich comes from
their own weakness. the irksOmneSs of
inactivity, is harder to bear than all the
agOnies of pain and disease. This is but
the beginning with the prisoner. Withdrawn
from all the interest of the world, having
10 longer any part in humanity, destined
at fixed hour to have the poor remnants
of h:e pale and shadOwy life chOked out of
b. =, The hands of the race of which he
Wa ..nce part. he must count the days
and hours that remain to him till that
agonizing moment when he shall, before
the IMPLYING eyes of the community he
has wr6nged, writhe out that wretched ex-
iStence. to which he yet as an animal
cings. All crime probably has an element
OF insanity in it. There is something alb
normal and unbalanced, there is no sense
of proportion, no idea of values. All things
are seen through refractng medium
which strangely distorts and falsifies them.
But under the strain of prison life the
sanest mind cannot long retain its tone. N.

Sunday Services.

The scripture lesson for the morning was part
of the 18th chal ter OF Isaiah. Mr.. Albert's text
was taken from Daniel, 2-44 "And in the days of
these kings shall the God of heaven set up king
dom which shall never be destroyed; and the
kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it
shall break in pieces and consume all these king
doms and it shall stand forever There are
three thoughts in this text that l would like to
call your attention to. First that the events fore
told should occur in the days of "these kings'
second, that sit shall break in pieces all these
kingdoms;' and third, that lit shall stand for.
ever" acknowledgements was the greatest mon
arch of ancient times. He had succeeded to the
kingdom when it was comparatively small but by
his genius and enterprise he extended its limits
from the Euphrates to the Mediterranean. He
built the greatest city of the times, and the
Hanging gardens" of Babylon that he built SIM
ply to please his queen, ranked among the
wonders of the world. One evening when the king
had grown old as hs sitting alone, he was
thinking of the mighty kingdom he had built up,
and what its future history would be. Was his
empire to remain the first of the nations of the
world, or would it decay and its territory be de-
vided and merged into other kingdoms? While
his mind was engaged with these thoughts, he
fell asleep-and as he slept curious vision APP
peared unto him, When he awoke, although the
dream had made great impression upon him,
he could not remember it. He was troubled in
consequence and called the wise men together
and demanded of them that they should relate to
him his dream. The wise men could not do his
bidding. and he decreed that all should be put to
death. At this time Daniel occupied very
anomalistic position. He captive a slave,
and yet at the same time the prime minister of
the king. When he heard the decree of the king
concerning the wise men he went before the king
and said that if the exercution could be delayed
till the morrow that the God of the Hebrews
would reveal the dream and the Interpretation
thereof. That night the dream and Interpretation
were revealed unto Daniel. Alter giving an out
line of the dream, its Interpretation, and illus
trating its application to the reigns of Cyrus,
Alexander and the Roman empire, and finally to
the birth of that kingdom which Daniel foretold
the kingdom of Christ-which was to rule the
world, Mr. Albert went to define Christ's
kingdom and give logical reasons why it shall
stand forever. Two causes which have always
been prominent in the downfall of nations are
corruption and internal dissentons. 1t is claimed
that the church is corrupt and that dogmatical
dissens,ons are weakening its power and will
surely cause its ultimate ruin. 1 grant that there

Thanksgiving in the Female Depart

Editor Mirror:
Although we have not the ability to express
ourselves as we wOuld like to. we wish to return
our thanks to the officers of this place, who have
been so kind to us since we have been under their
care. If we have not said anything. it was not
because we do not appreciate their kindness.
But we cannot see this Thanksgiving day lass
without Offering to them our heartfelt thanks for
all the trouble they have taken to make every
thing pleasant for on this day. 1t will never
be forgotten by the inmates. and we will pray
God to reward them. A good deed is never lost
We wish also to extended our thanks to the
gentlemen and ladies who favored us with such
pleasant entertainment, which we enjoyed so
much. Mrs Tough is kindly remembered by us
for her splendid music, and the choir for their
nice singing
We are also grateful to the ladies who paid us a
pleasant visit Thanksgiving and we hope to see
them again ere long. 1t seemed though we had
been forgotten, one had been to see us for
long time. and we felt very badly about it. 1t
appeared that because we are women, PEOPLE
think we don't need good advice and cheerful
words 10 help us reform. But we need help as
much men, and perhaps more. because we are
thought to be harder to reform than they are. 1t
may be so, but we don't think there is much diff
ference and hope those visiting this place will
remember that we are here.
We W sh also to acknowledge very pleasant
call from Rev. Father Murphy On the evening of
the 23d. For the first time he made the rounds of
the corridors, stopping at each cell and having a
kind word for all. We hope to see him again
soon.

motherly advice, which she often gives us, and
which was renewed so heartily to-day, and also for
allowing the freedom of the CORR dors until
